There are a number of commemorative insulators out there on the

market. Most of them don't look like real insulators at all. Another problem is

the buyer really doesn't know how many of each color were actually

made. I believe I should be able to offer you something unique, great looking, and

really unusual, in a truly limited-edition item. My goal here is to make the insulator look like the real item when sitting

on the shelf or in a window. This insulator is shaped like a 728.4 threadless, and Instead of the round threadless pin, it features a square threadless

pin. Why a square pin? Because to my knowledge there is only one known

square pin insulator in the whole world, and this would give collectors

a chance to own one. Ther ia an email address

squarepin1870@yahoo.com embossed on the base and they are NIA

approved. The color of this one is known in the bottlt world as "Strawberry Puce" It's a rare color in any old bottle and not many insulators were made in

this color. ( I believe 2 or 3 have been found so far.) When you put a light under it it turns a deep red in color. There were 14 of these made with a star embossed on the top. Once they are sold out no more will be made. I have 10 left. They sell for $65.00 ea - $5.00 postage ? email me any time Thanks Bob Alexander
